Caring for your South African Boerboel

South African Boerboel dogs puppies can be the ultimate k9 athlete.

Therefore Ohio Boerboel Breeders dogs pups are trained and prepared to develop their full physical potential. We train South African Boerboel dogs-puppies using the K.I.L. philosophy. Which is focused around keeping you dog in its best physical condition by not allowing him'/her to put on excess weight.

Obesity is as much of a problem in mastiff dogs and puppies as it is in humans. Ideally you should be able to see a thin layer of muscle covering your Boerboels ribs.Just past the ribs we like to see the stomach tucked. Do not allow your South African Boerboel to begin bad habits like eating and laying around have a plan.

There are 3 method of training that we use to obtain this in our Boerboels.

Weight Training

Ohio Boerboel Breeders dogs pups are trained to pull weight. Weight training increases our dogs power and physical appearance. Ohio B Breeders use a weight pull harness to have our boerboels pull a wide range of weights. From dumbbells to cars weight pulling greatly increases our boerboels strength, appearance, and health. With weight pulling our South African boerboels get very strong and it helps to develop large powerful muscles in the chest, neck, torso back and legs.

Endurance Training-

Endurance training means training to go the distance. Our South African Boerboel dogs-puppies involves much running and swimming. Endurance training greatly build our dogs-pups cardiovascular system. Our South African Boerboels run with us along side bike cars and atv's and swim in lakes ponds and pools. Endurance training is about building up the dog-pup for the long run. In our endurance training we push our dogs past that extra mile.We like to confuse the muscles by alternating our routines consistently. Depending on what we are training for our dogs-pups will be involved weight endurance and skill training. The goal behind our endurance training is to greatly increase our dogs ability to perform.

Skill Training-

Skill training is training your boerboel to do something specific. Example would be to hunt or for agility. Training for any competition involves skill specific training. Even weight pull is not just hook my dog to the weight and let it pull. There are specific routines involved in ever k9 sport that require specific skill sets.

Our young boerboel pups begin training as soon as they leave their mom. In young dogs-pups it is important not to overdo it. Keep in mind that a puppy is still developing its musculoskeletal structure and you don't want to cause irreparable damage by overworking. Our young boerboel pups are never involved in activities that we deem too strenuous. It is important to know signs of fatigue in your pup dog to avoid injury or death.
